I am using Miktex 2.9 on windows 10 and can't choose a repository in the package manager to get the necessary packages.This error pops up in the Miktex Problem Report: ="socket failed in tcp_connect()"

Can you help me?

I already checked if there is a proxy: negative. And i also deactivated the firewall and antivirus software.

An error in the tpm. Christian (MikTeX maintainer) wrote on the miktex mailing list "This file cannot be parsed because it contains an error: the character sequence 'Chen & Harrison' should be replaced by 'Chen and Harrison'. I will fix this." Should be sorted out tomorrow.

The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.
